Self driving would be worth it for trucking on its own and you're not gonna reduce trucking by making cities more walkable.

No, but trains could reduce trucking.

Where? A huge amount of freight already travels by train. Over-the-road trucks are mostly only used when trains are too slow for time-sensitive loads, or where it's impractical to lay tracks.
